Modern defense and commercial avionics programs are tasked with simultaneously reducing size, weight, and power (SWaP) while rapidly analyzing multiple streams of data from a variety of sensor processing subsystems. By reducing the height of its high density secure memory devices to less than 2.4mm, Mercury's latest innovation allows system architects to mount high-speed, ruggedized memory on the backside of the printed circuit board instead of the front side. By replacing four discrete memory devices on the front side of a board with a single Mercury low-profile 2GB memory device mounted on the backside of the board, 441mm2 of highly valuable front-side board real estate can be made available. As a result, system architects can now add additional active and passive components needed for enhanced system functionality required for a successful mission.

In addition to uncompromising performance in SWaP-optimized form factors, Mercury integrates trust and supply chain security throughout the complete lifecycle of its high density secure memory product portfolio. All high density secure memory products are manufactured exclusively in the Company's Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA)-trusted facility, which has received accreditation for design, broker, packaging, assembly, and test services. Several of Mercury's facilities have also received a Superior rating from the Defense Security Service (DSS). Furthermore, Mercury protects its electronic records with an active cybersecurity program modeled after the Center for Internet Security (CIS) critical security controls.
Mercury's application engineering team routinely assists customers integrating high density secure memory into new or existing designs.
